The biggest event was that I retired after teaching for 43 years.
I also attended several cultural events in my city (Cape Town) like the Japan Day, the Taiwan Festival as well as the Korean Festival where I experienced the culture and food of those Asian countries. These events have become very popular in my country, South Africa.
I also attended the first screenings of the anime movies Jujutsu Kaisen and Demon Slayer. I really enjoyed them.
In 2026 I am starting a brand new chapter of my life. Now that I am retired from my full-time job, I hope to have the time and opportunity to experience many more events like these and also work on learning new languages myself (I am currently learning Spanish and Japanese, so I understand and relate to the challenges of learning a new language).
I am also so excited to be teaching online and I am looking forward to meeting new students and helping them with their journey in English.
